Hi,

I cloned the head repos and created branch in which I created a sample cdist/conf/manifest/init file

If I do a "git status" the new "init" file is ignored.

It only shows up if I comment out the line 19 in cdist/.gitignore
...

MANIFEST

I am running Mac os x 10.6.8 git version 1.8.4

Is there a workaround?

thanks,
ALex

Hey Alex,

no - and I'm shocked to see that MacOSX seems to use case INsensitive names in their files!

I suggest that you use ~/.cdist/ instead of cdist/conf/* for your personal stuff - this is support for a while, but we haven't updated the manpages to reflect this.

Using cdist/conf/* is still possible and has some usecases (like having everything in one repo), but in practise it seems like ~/.cdist is the better approach.

Hope this helps - closing the bug and if you're unhappy, just reopen it!
